Sake, Japan's signature alcoholic drink, is versatile enough to be enjoyed in various settings and with delicious cuisines. Many sake lovers around the world also pair their choice of drink not only with good food, but classical music as well. The Japan-America Society of Washington DC is proud to once again be collaborating with the National Philharmonic and DC Sake, Co. to bring you an engaging virtual classical music and sake experience that you can participate in right at home. For this event, the National Philharmonic will be performing Vivaldi’s “Summer,” which attendees can enjoy with Masumi “First Run” Arabashiri Nama Ginjo,  a vibrant, fruity Japanese sake from Nagano Prefecture that perfectly encapsulates the sweetness of summer. Additionally, listen to a talk from our featured guest, violinist Regino Madrid, assistant concertmaster of The National Philharmonic at Strathmore and regular performer with the National Symphony Orchestra! It’s time to savor the long days and hot nights of summer, and we at the Japan-America Society of Washington DC feel there's no better way to do so than with beautiful music and sake!

Note: Sake is available for pick up at JASWDC Office (1819 L Street N.W., Washington, DC) during the dates and times in the additional event information section. Please contact JASWDC in advance of your pick up so that we can make sure to have someone at the office.
